Finally, high school is over after 3 years! and now before going to Otago University, I have decided to take a one year break and go to Finland ( and other European countries). I would like to share my experience with you =)

Little bit of Walking never hurts, but running does!

Hey! I was too lazy to post yesterday after 2 posts so i post here what I was doing yesterday :D

well basically normal typical routine after 2.30pm (working) I decided to walk around Helsinki since I have not yet done that since my arrival. Well i have but not so much =]
It was too sunny, nice and warm weather who wouldn't wanna walk through the 'real' part of Helsinki? HELL YEA?!@# (Still got lost countless times :D)

Is this Lutheran church...? I have no idea it didn't say and beside Finland is 90% Lutherans so YES have to be.. :D
Just beside the coast line part :), I cannot resist to take that picture of cool houses and walking though those areas did give me the real' European feeling, as how the building were structured and the walking pavement, =p 
Is this the tower of 'Never Ending Fire' I think someone has told me about it, I don't remember.  Well there's fire at the top someone care to explain? :D
Skate park for skaters! Not so impressive as the one in ChristChurch.. but I guess they love it? =]
There are little Islands all around Finland surrounded by lakes and ocean, its awsome and its best to reach there by boat DUH, well you could swim if you want. ;D
 
Ahhhh that was too beautiful, plus there is the ferry cruise ship :D Spring is here for sure and in summer i bet its more beautiful than ever!! Gah Marry me Finland :)
Anyone keen for picnic? :)
I tried to get on the tram to go back to Kamppi again and I caught the wrong one and ended up in.. Heitaniemi? Tram sure is the most confusing out of all transport.. but I'll try get used to it :D
mmmmmm... sexy isn't it? I don't know the meaning of this, again please someone explain =]]

So that was my day yesterday. boring pictures but hey I ain't no photographer!! hehe
Btw, I ran today trying to be healthy again and sure I failed at where I was running.. I got lost and was way off the course luckily I found the main road so running for 1.5 hours first time in 3 months is the worst, expect me to crippled walk tomorrow :D

Laters Mayn!

Annoeyong Party and After Party.

Hello all!
So one of the longest weekend has begun and finished after I write this hahaha, seriously I was sooooo busy this weekend, mainly drinking and being feel SOOO sick. well tummy ache, no vomiting I am a man now, ;)

Saturday- I was supposed to be working today, but my sister got sick with fever so the restaurant is closed for today :), anyways I went to this k-pop party called "Annoeyong Party" in Helsinki at Gloria, I have to say its getting better, well better than last time I was there, more people more performances and now I can actually go upstairs and drink few longkelos, okay not few but decent amount of lonkelos, thanks for the shout Liina (Y)
Everyone is well, love to dance in this place and its not like a typical clubbing area where men goes behind girls and do crazy things, it actually a place where a girl can do dance freely :p and this type of party, its 75% girls. So if your asian, true asian, you might get those looks =)

I also made some friends through Liina and Eeva, its nice to make new friends, :)
The half of the songs they played were too new for me so i didn't understand so much but other half I understood from last year! and got to know some cool songs too!
party well ended by the different DJ who tried to mix Asian music and Western music together.. so failed. 

=D


Sunday
Sunday was the best day to sleep until 12 O'clock :D, I didn't do ANYTHING except for being worried that every store was closed, Thanks Liina. :)
We went to S-market.. no K-market.. ok i can't tell the difference so let's say we went to A market. bought some more Lonkelo, it seems like these are my favorite drinks :p 
I didn't get the grapefruit.. but instead I got the pear version of it, its tasted pretty good actually!
I bought six packs.. although I only drank 5 cause I gave one to Eeva.. how STUPID I was. :D, She owes me.
Anywho, I was invited to Mariela after party (whom i met at Annoeyong party) I have to say, her house was rather.. the best looking one. 

there were.. ( and I am trying my best to remember everyone from the party) Mariela, Elina, Eeva, Liina, Oona, Nita, Emma, Vili.......... and the rest I don't know remember their names! good party! I got so wasted, I did not remember half of the things happened, and apparently heaps of things happened! I wish I remember.. zzzz, 


It supposed to be a group photo but my phone got retarded and didn't take the whole picture.. so  you can see Eeva and Liina there :p
Elina and Mariela :pThe host and her friend, they just love to dance, dance dance dance and more dance. They also taught me some dancing moves from Super Luv - TeenTop, I was so bad. Well alcohol was the factor for sure!!!!! They were so good. so jealous :)btw, Thanks for wine and rum Mariela, but next time don't over do it ;D

This party, or my own personal party was ended by me singing the barbie that was playing.. so goood. no wonder my throat hurt the next morning! sigh. =p

P.s got slapped billion times although I don't remember half of the time.. Liina once again bad old habit.

Monday
THE WORST FKN FEELING EVER?!@#$%^
Tummy ache the whole day, still didn't vomited, unlike someone....
Did nothing but went home, shower, ate a duck and off to bed for 2 hours.. still had purple bag under my eyes! yuck. 

Anyways this was my long weekend story. it was good :D
Byee~~

EDIT: I don't care! LONGKELO! LONKELO! =D
EDIT 2: LONKERO!! Leave me alooooone =/


Happy Easter!

Hi!
this is super delayed but Happy Easter to everyone!
Good Friday, I didn't have work so I went to my sister friend's place to celebrate it! (Judy's Family)

Gottah say I love when I spilled pepper all over my food after one can of longkelo.. sooo bad! and I still ate the food although it was all covered with pepper! great spice.. never again  :D

Well everyone was having a great time I guess. well except for the men we don't usually talk so Judy's Husband decides to play "RockBand 3" Hahahaha it was the best ever!
They even ask me to do the singing party.. luckily they did not find the microphone.. so glad. It would be waaaay too awful!



<--- See all of them have those concentrated eyes! It really gets to you.. and i was playing the drums and the guitar! it sure was great.. i was really good with the guitar.. but the drums. not so much.
I can't multi task, i can't move my foot and hit 2 things at once. No never :)

Reminiscing my weekend and the present.

hei!
so another post, I have to break it up in two parts because it might become so massive you might get bored of reading it..

So let's get back to from Thursday until today (Tuesday)

Thursday
I was up until suuuuuuper late,, around 5AM, because someone wanted to stay up and I also stayed up too xD
watching the lord of the ring.. mhmmm taking me back in the days when it first releases.. anyways, I had 2 hours of sleep and again back on cleaning and telling Oona to hurry up because she's soooo slow on packing. (I have told her to pack the day before, she insist.. blah)
It's very sad to see a friend leave when you just became such a good mate, more closer you get, more suffering you will get after the person leaves. but when you know you will see them in the future you start to get happy again, so it's good to have think like that :))

Anyways, after her departure, taking more of her DVD collections, I must have over 40 DVD's.. LOL.
=DD Thanks!
Nothing so special after that, I don't recall doing anything.
OH I was reading Slum Dog Millionaire, book is always seems better than the movie..

I also went to Stockman this day with my sister since it was Hallut Päivät (Crazy Day) but trust me still so expensive, clearly this department store is for Swedish people. hahaha 
Yellow bags and Yellow balloons everywhere!

Friday
I was working since 9AM until 6PM.. how tiring. Making sushi, Mix the rice, Make Nigiri Zushi rice, waitering, doing the kassa and "trying" to talk Finnish is very hard job. and this is everyday =D.
Anyways, nothing special I think happened on Friday... Nah nothing. Went bed early.

Saturday
I slept in today! woooray! so amazing to start at 2pm! and I finished at 7pm today since it was rather quiet at the restaurant, I was again making sushi :))
I was supposed to go to Kate's Birthday party, but I remembered that I don't have any texts.. no credit.. mhmmm I would of gone to the party however, I was rather sick and someone didn't tell me the address or where to meet up and go to her party *wink wink nudge nudge*.
But that's okay I was rather happy with my Italian Pizza and come cider which helped me sleep happily through the night :D.


Sunday
No work today.. seems like Sunday is my lazy today!
but Liina asked to go hang out (Whata Surprise, she never asks. EVER).
Anyways, I was at there 3.30pm and she came like one hour late so I did myself some shopping to kill some time and I did buy 2 things, and I never buy things in Finland since its so expensive even with sales. or maybe I am way too blind haha.



Why do I look super ridiculous in that picture? I don't know but I am sick of taking picture of myself Lol. :O
anyways just to show what I bought. since I didn't take the picture before I worn it.
That shirt was €19.95! That was 50% off at Esprit, my favourite clothing shop but rather expensive, so when the sale hits I buy it.
Its spring so I had to buy something Springy.. :p

Oh I bought that Sunglasses today at Prisma, Do i look too gangsta now?
I also bought this sweatshirt but that's for next time too lazy to go upstairs and take a picture..


Anyways, Liina came and I had this.. uhm.. Hungarian food? I don't remember I was just eating Chicken with Mozzarella cheese on it with chips and veges.. mhmmm so good.

Monday
Normal Monday.


Tuesday
Normal day until 2.30pm.
Today my library books are due so I went to Iso Omena which means Big Apple, it's a small mall in Espoo where I live close by! It has normal shops, reminds me off.. the palms actually hahaha there's a big supermarket called Prisma.. and I forgot the other one right infront of Prisma.. Can someone remind me?
Anyways Prisma, basically has EVERYTHING. More like K-mart and Pak'n Save combined. Or Whare House with food sections =]]
I bought those sunglasses,lotions and hair product, oh and coke. *gulp*
It was also a super sunny day, just a little wind. I definitely needed sunglasses for today.


When I got back, I decided to bike around my suburb, so I took my sister's bike and went around. Btw I am biking next month to work, so thats six times a week, twice a day. mmmm but it saves me  €90 per month!!!!!!!! thats so much...

 That's so beautiful huh? Why Finland is sucha beautiful country?
I bet in summer it would be more beautiful! this was just a track I was biking on and it was very nice :)) It's long time since I biked so it felt weird a bit.. I saw couple of people jogging already, maybe I start to jog as well, I am being slack all these times, no wonder I feel lazy and get tired easily..


Present
Now, I am having my toast with chocolate jam on top.. and with my tea.. omg it's so gooooood! who doesn't like chocolate on their toast? reminds me of New Zealand nutella.. gah so good!
Whoever wants this, come to mine and I give you!
I PROMISE ;D



P.S
I am so friggen tired writing this blog already.. Took me one hour to do it.
You guys better love it or else i'll stop again haha.
I should go to bed, I am start early tomorrow again =D
Moikka.

Back on business people =]

Hello, or actually I am a such typical Finnish person I can now casually say moi!

My blog has been dead for a month now, wow I must of been either so busy or I was too distracted,** wink wink nudge nudge** =D
but I have resurrected and I am back on business!

Well.. I have been pretty busy I guess last month in March.. Just working, and just saw my friends, well a particular friend actually ;)
since then I have been pretty occupied and I was too lazy to blog anything, blah thanks Oona =]
(Hope you are having a blast in New Zealand, make Finnish babies, we need more in NZ - Just don't let them become on of the Rosalie ;D)


 So I know maybe you are disgusted that I have uploaded.. TAKEN a picture of a toilet, BUT It amazes me that it had a tiny little screen on top for advertising the trailers for movies haha, I don't know if you can see it but it was Ringo. I must say I was staying there for whole 3 mins even though I finished doing my business, luckily no one was around to see me taking a picture, but look!! its a friggen screen on top! How fancy?!
This was at Tennisplatsi near train station, pretty small one. I saw.. I Am Number Four. It was great, hot girls, good action and comfy chair. =D


Read the next one too. :D
Moikka.
